Pathways Enhancements 2025

   Toastmasters World Headquarters has made some changes to the pathways requirements.  There will be more info to come, but I will cover some of the highlights that they have sent out at this time. These changes will be implemented starting October 2025. 

   There is now a requirement at each level to complete meetings roles. These will be documented on your profile in the TI website. IF you go to your profile near the bottom there is a section titled "Meeting Roles" I would just encourage you whenever you go into the website update what roles you have done recently so it is always current. I am not sure is this part of the website will be connected to the pathway directly ro not. IE: won't let a person sign off level until these are entered. I have little to no concern for our club at this time as we are all very active in the roles of the meetings. This could be a little more involved as we grow in membership as there will be less roles to go around so to speak.  This would be an excellent problem to have! 

  There is also going to be a requirement for club members to present from the Successful Club Series, The Better Speaker Series and the Leadership Excellence Series presentations.  While this will be more effort and work, I think this will be a positive thing. It will help us all to practice presentation skills from the already drafted materials. It will also allow us to make it our own presentation even though it is sourced from the material given.  There are requirements at levels 3.  4 and 5. 

  There is more info including a "Pathways Enhancements by Level" chart. Follow this link to review this information.

  I have said it before,  inside of me when changes come I have a tendency to resist and frankly I need to check my attitude!  :).    I think these changes if we approach with a positive attitude will be great! Let's get after it this year fellow toastmasters. Let's achieve some things and improve ourselves together!
